Longing doesn't need much words to describe itself. The length of its extent is enough to express itself. May the length is shorter or prolonged, the proportion of pain and pleasure settle themselves well into that.
Pandav prince Arjun who was on e...
Arjun reached at Subhadra's chamber. The sight in front of him made him spellbound. The whole chamber was decorated with white, his favourite colour. White bedsheets and white cushions were symbolising delicacy in a very attractive way.
The white curtains which were tied still, were moving with slow wind, presenting perfection in its each fold. Vases were full of white flowers arranged in a splendid way. The small fountain in chamber was containing white lotuses which were floating with the flow of water, and were making eyes bound to be attentive while observing their floating from side to side.

In short, the scintillating decorations of the chamber weren't even permitting his eyes to move away. After some moments of being mesmerised, an earthen scenario caught his curiosity. He proceeded towards the table on which it was kept. That was a natural scenario of forest where a pretty hut was situated. He became emotional after glancing that scenario, keenly.
That was the hut where he and his brothers had spent the most blissful days of their lives. That hut was the witness of their carefree days of childhood with their parents. He got a chit there.
"Blissful memories are like blessings. Those are meant to be cherished, not to be cried over. After passage of time moments become memories. If we make those moments our pain then the essence of memories will be sicken," after reading the chit, Arjun smiled in no time.
Roaming his gaze further, he saw a little bow kept on another table. He took the bow in his hand, and realization hit him, immediately. It was the bow he used to have during his primary days of practice. A chit was placed there also. He picked that up to read.
"I am sure that you must remember about this. This bow was used in primary practice of yours. It went missing with the proceeding of time," he went down to the memory lane to meet some happy flashbacks.
"No matter how far the kite goes, and how high it flies in sky, it always remains connected with its thread holder. Today you have a divine bow like Gaandiv, but I know that the start of your journey with this bow is surely special for you," he smiled, admiring her understanding.
"I made this bow after collecting titbit information about its appearance from bhrata Nakul. If you like this gift then it's fine, otherwise I will keep it with me. After all, I have made it with great effort. So, I won't let my effort to be abandoned," that portion of chit made him chuckle.
"Madhav was right. This girl is an antique piece," he commented while chuckling.
At next, he noticed something hang on the wall close to bed, and that was covered with a long white cloth. He took off the cloth. One more stunning sight came out. That was a masterpiece painting of afternoon sky with moderate sunshine and admiring existence of white clouds.
The painting had covered the wall, fully. That was seeming lively, creating the doubt of miniature of real afternoon sky in chamber. Painting was placed in a way that anyone could drown into it, sitting on bed, comfortably.
He started searching for chit as he got chits near each piece of amusement. He found the one, and started reading.
"This painting is defining you according to me. Before your arrival also you were in my life. It's surprising, but it's true. After hearing about you from everyone and everywhere, you had strengthened your place in my thoughts, in my heart too, obviously," his heart was swelling with happiness when his eyes were roaming over her writing.
"You are calm and charming like this sky which remains always high due to its generosity. Sky has contribution in many activities yet it remains unaffected each time like a saint. Whenever I had seen this afternoon sky my senses froze with the feeling about you, which was dear to me, which needed to derive its reality," a surprised expression along with slight romanticism adorned his face.
"Before meeting you, the prime image of my feelings were white in colour like these clouds. You mixed the red colour of belongingness which made me fortunate with the vermilion of your name," after reading this, he was simply awestruck.
He was in trance. Just then he noticed a shadow was approaching towards him. He was fully aware of the approaching person. The shadow was so near to him with the intention of shaking him with a jerk, but he turned suddenly.
"What's this, Subhi? Do you think your this childishness can be escaped from my attention?" His dazzling smile was enough to fill her heart with delight.
"I intented to make you surprised, but you spoiled it. You always remain active with your warrior side," Subhadra pouted after accusing him, sweetly.
"You have made me surprised, successfully, Subhi. It's not right time to pout as it's not free time for both of us. So, I can't reward you for your pouting," he was caressing her lips with his thumb, softly.
"Did you like my preparations for your birthday, Arya?" She asked to divert him.
"In one word, all those are indescribable," he replied, pulling her closer to him.
"We should go now, Arya. Everyone must be waiting for breakfast. It's getting late," she made herself free from his grip, and walked away a little distance.
"There is a lack, Subhi!" He spoke a bit louder, making her shocked.
"What's it, Arya?" She walked towards him.
"Despite presenting these much, you didn't wish me till now," he replied playfully, making her sigh in relief.
"Happy birthday, Arya!" She wished him with a bright smile.
"Does a wife wish her husband like this?" He raised his eyebrows.
She shook her head, and was about to hug him, to convey her wish. Before that, he pecked her lips, quickly, and hugged her tightly. She was a bit surprised. So, took a little time to hug him back.
"After a long it's my birthday with family. My family has made this day memorable for me, especially Panchali and you," he confessed to her.
"Now, we really need to leave, Arya!" She alerted, to which Arjun nodded, happily, and they both departed towards dining hall.
The bliss of that day was waiting for them.
